Everybody is talking about Downton Abbey, and we will, too, at our luncheon featuring the phenomenally popular PBS series, Downton Abbey. Cecilia Budd Grimes (who did her masters project in England on the English Country House) will present the program. If you’re one of Downton Abbey’s millions of fans, you’ll love this insightful commentary on the Edwardian era and the history behind its lavish lifestyles and the steps taken to ensure the succession of families of nobility and their estates. (If you’ve missed the series, we’ll get you up to speed on the storyline!)
